Just wanted to follow up on my initial review of MKA 5 years ago…read more I've had many people reach out to me with similar stories. The center has had high turnover for teachers. The director at the time told me that my then 4/5 year old son was difficult, impossible to deal with, didn't listen, and would do poorly in public school. They refused to give him additional work to do in Pre-K, saying they could only give him the same items that the other children had; he was constantly finishing work before others and was bored. MKA kicked him out 3 weeks before Pre-K graduation, so his academic career did not have a qualifying Pre-K certificate. He was diagnosed with severe ADHD when he began kindergarten. With the right medication, and taking karate daily, my son grew leaps and bounds. His teachers in elementary school were all aghast that he was kicked out of Pre-K since they could see he was just bouncier than other kids. He just began his last year of elementary school, and is a 2nd Dan black belt in karate. He is consistently on honor roll, and is an all around happy guy. Just beware that some centers really do not have the time or patience necessary for kids. If my son was one who didn't have ADHD, then he may have done well at MKW.

Copy of email that my husband sent on 8/15/2020…read more Our first week experience at this Kiddy Academy location was not up to our standards. We will not be returning on Monday, as discussed. The girls were not in attendance whatsoever on Wednesday, as discussed, and the fact that there ever was any confusion in that matter is alarming to say the least. It is a hundred percent your responsibility to know when children are in your care and when they are not. This is a huge safety concern. Also, before trying to confront my wife about trying to bring the children for care for four days, instead of the agreed upon three, check your records and security cameras to make sure you are correct, beforehand. This past Friday, my wife did check the children in around 10:30am, which she was told was too late. She was confronted in the lobby by a staff member, who kept telling her that the children should be there by 9am, and no later. Otherwise, this facility is not "properly staffed" as mentioned. The girls did miss Monday, as originally scheduled, but were in attendance on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, rather than the original schedule of Monday, Wednesday, Friday. However, Friday was always a part of the plan, so I do not understand how this facility would not be "properly staffed" on that particular day. If a staff member was sent home early because someone assumed our children would not show up for all three days we were charged for, that is not our fault. We never spoke with anyone and told them our girls would not be attending on Friday. On my wife's part, we have never had our daughters in daycare and she did not understand that the schedule for drop off and pick up was supposed to remain the same each day. A simple call or email or even a discreet word in the lobby, after the kids had been taken to their classroom, would have sufficed, rather than making it a bigger deal than it had to be and making her feel uncomfortable. Lastly, on Friday morning, my wife witnessed that same staff member who felt the need to confront her in the lobby with our three children about bringing the children too late in the very first week, call our daughter Brielle by her sisters name. We know having twins can be confusing, but they are fraternal, not identical. They look similar, but not the same. The fact that no one could tell which child is which by the third day in your care is also alarming and another gigantic safety hazard, aside from the fact that each child's name should be known, anyway. Highly disappointed would be an understatement, especially after waiting so long for this location to open. There are plenty of other facilities in the area, but it definitely didn't really seem as though our business was highly valued, which seems odd, to say the least, especially with two little girls. Update 8/30/2020 Not only do we lose out on the registration fee for my daughters attending for 3 days, but they are billing us for two more weeks. If we just left without issues, I'd understand. This was not the case, though. Would not recommend this location to anyone, to say the least. They will not know whether or not your child(ren) is actually present and won't even bother to learn a name or two, apparently, and furthermore, keep charging for a horrible experience due to negligence on their part.

He is 7 months old currently, but has been attending since he was 3 months old, and the teachers adore him. There are only 4 babies for every 1 teacher and so each baby really gets the amount of love and attention necessary. They engage the children in so many activities ranging from music time to exploration time with toys to arts and crafts (yes, even babies!). They go outside twice a day for at least 30 minutes, if not more, and they are so diligent about feeding him at the right time. If you ever have any concerns, they are very quick and polite to respond, and they constantly update you through the ProCare app. I am also able to view my son through a private live video feed provided by PB&J TV. This daycare is truly a blessing. They do so much to make you and your child feel welcome. My husband and I are considering moving houses and we are really torn up about the fact MFA2 may not be in our driving range anymore. We're considering not moving just so he can stay!
